On Monday one of the wargaming clubs I game with held their annual Christmas breakup party. There's usually a simple beer and pretzels game that's played as a tournament (Star Wars Miniatures, Heroclix, single X-Wing spaceship per player, etc). This year it was Battlefront's / Gale Force 9's Tanks with everybody getting a random 20 point tank with upgrades (provided by the TO). After last year's chaos IS-2 and Tiger tanks weren't included (if you play the game you'll understand).
Most of the games were works of art, the way tanks danced around each other like that scene in 'Fury':
Not having the IS-2s and Tigers didn't stop the chaos though. At the end of the day the game really can't be taken seriously - it's beer and pretzels and doesn't try to be anything else.
Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and all the best for 2018.
